The Cult of Moloch at work – politicians in Democrat states take bribes, disenfranchise rural communities, SEIZE LAND, build forests of windmills and plantations of solar panels
From here:
“Michigan, California, New York and Illinois have all passed legislation that consolidates authority over land use issues and rules with state-level bureaucrats at the expense of local governments that could have altered their own zoning codes to stem the tide of industrial green projects like solar and wind farms. These policies deprive rural residents in these states of their freedom and local autonomy, while also benefiting the corporate interests that line the pockets of the states’ Democratic governors, state policy experts and lawmakers told the Daily Caller News Foundation.”
Blatant land grab in exchange for bribes – all done via the centralisation of power into the hands of bureaucrats – just like the WHO – the Cult of Moloch at work.
“Michigan
Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer recently enacted her state’s green energy mandate, which sets a target for 100% green energy generation by 2040. The legislation has the state poised to significantly ramp up construction of solar and wind developments, as well as carbon capture pipelines that will be needed for the state’s natural gas plants to continue to operate in the future.
California
California, another state dominated by the Democratic Party, passed a law in June 2022 that enables state bureaucrats to bypass local restrictions in order to permit large-scale green energy projects. Similar to Michigan’s newly-enacted statute, the California law is specifically designed to facilitate the state’s pursuit of 100% zero-carbon energy generation by 2045.
New York
New York state established the Office for Renewable Energy Siting (ORES) in April 2020, when former Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo was still in office before he resigned amid sexual harassment and COVID-19 scandals. ORES has the ability to not apply “any local law or ordinance” that is “unreasonably burdensome” for a proposed green energy facility in view of the state’s aggressive green energy goals or the perceived environmental benefits associated with a given project, according to the enabling statute’s text.
Illinois
In February, Democratic Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker enacted H.B. 4412, which “prevents counties from enacting preemptive local ordinances that outright ban local wind and solar projects, hindering the state’s new climate goals.” Illinois is aiming to reach 100% green energy generation by 2050, and will need to build out a significant network of new solar and wind projects to get there.”
This comment about Michigan pretty well sums it up:
“Jason Hayes, the director of energy and environmental policy for the Mackinac Center, a Michigan-based think tank, told the DCNF. “Put another way, these bills protect the profits of politically favored and heavily subsidized wind and solar developers, while sacrificing the rights and interests of the communities that will have to endure the wind turbines and solar arrays developers want to build… rural Michiganders will have to endure both the rising costs and the intrusions into their lives and environment as massive increases in wind and solar development begin to occur.”
All this destruction of rural habitats to install technology that will rapidly become obsolete and require dismantling and disposal is environmental lunacy.
THERE IS NO CLIMATE CRISIS
Politicians are not capable of understanding the science but are entirely capable of taking bribes to secure political ambitions and personal wealth.
People are fighting back:
“Voters punished local officials who had supported the company in November at the ballot box, ousting five members of the township’s council, the township’s clerk and the township’s treasurer. Those officials had overseen and facilitated Gotion’s plans to operate in the area before their removal.

The sad thing about that is that the Cult could care less about democracy and local people. Only their sycophants in power at the upper levels of government get to say what happens.
The Cult views its religion as sovereign and not the individual and certainly not local communities that are not part of the Cult.

The magnitude of the land grab across the country can not be overstated. Specifically, vast amounts of public land (BLM/Forest Service are being proposed for leasing to private/subsidized wind plantations across the west. The adverse cumulative impacts of these actions are likely significant and irreversible. A 2007 DOI Wind Energy Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), required under the 1970 National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), is being dusted off and used as legal justification. Local environmental project assessments have been tiered off of this inadequate and dated EIS. If you recall, the NEPA legal framework is what brought the timber industry to it knees and ruined countless small rural communities, and has been used to halt border fence construction. Moreover, the USFWS has assumed authority to issue “takings” of Eagles, other birds of pray, and bats by wind turbines in a overreaching assault of the 1973 Endangered Species Act. Finally, I might add these so-called “takings” waivers are occurring with the blessing of most of the big national environmental organizations like the Audubon Society as on offering to the global climate gods.
